Piece of shit

"but Bapu sa," Kush tried to argue but his father glared at him.

"If you want to marry her then you have to cut all ties with us Kush," Rani Sa said as he stared at his mother in shock and surprise.

"Maa-sa, I love her," Kush said. He had to pretend.

"You can find love again, Kush, but nayera can't be your wife," she said in a no-nonsense tone.

"If that is what you want maa-sa then fine but remember one thing, if not Nayera, I won't ever marry anyone," Kush said in an angry tone as his mother gasped.

"Kush, you don't even know what you are talking about," she said as Kush chuckled.

"I know very well what I am talking about maa-sa, Bapu sa, I love nayera and if it's not going to be her then it won't be anyone else," Kush said and stormed out of the study room.

"Kush what happened," she said as she saw him walking downstairs, his walk seemed angry.

He walked towards her as she stood up, holding his hand gently he stared at her with a soft gaze but it turned into anger within a second.

He took the end of the lehenga from her hand and threw it on the floor, "Kush what are you doing? I selected that for our roka!" Nayera said as she bent to pick it up but Kush held her hand.

She stood straight as he looked at her, "no Roka is happening, no marriage nothing," he yelled at her as her eyes filled with tears.

"W-what are you talking about, kush?" She asked in a low voice. Her heart thrummed in her chest.

"I am yours okay? Only yours," Kush said as Nayera's heart skipped a beat. She could not understand his words for a second until his parents came running.

He nodded at her as she blinked her eyes.

'the plan worked,' it was their silent message to each other.

"Let's go," Kush said holding her hand as nayera looked at Kush's parents.

Her eyes had slight moisture in her them.

"Kush, stop! You are making a mistake," his father said as nayera looked at them with a painful smile.

Just look how fast people change, a few hours ago the same man was caressing her bead like a father would have and now he was just turning his back on her.

Because of a goddamn Kundali, she faked.

"Thank you for among me understand, love and affection are just temporary emotions," she said to them as they looked at her with regret in their eyes.

"This is about our son, Nayera," rana ji said as she shook her head.

"My love is not temporary, Era, " he said as he cupped her face.

She leaned into his touch as a few years escaped her eyes, "I know," she said as he walked out of the palace.

"Rana ji, we have to stop them what if they got married in the temple or something? Kush can't marry her, his life would be in danger," Rani Sa said as she was about to run behind her son when her husband held her hand.

"Let me stop them Rana ji," she said in a worried tone, her biggest fear will come true this way.

"Kunwar kush Sabharwal is a Rajvanshi, rani sa, Rajvanshi never marry without parent's consent, I have faith in my blood, he won't marry her, at least not now," rani ji said to his wife.

Her grip on his hand was punishing but she did not say a thing afterwords.

They are parents and parents have to take tough decisions for their children sometimes.

.

Kush opened the door of his car as nayera slid in. He jogged towards the other side before he opened the door and entered the slike black car.

Kush did his seatbelt before he looked over at Nayera, she was as always struggling with the seatbelt.

Kush clipped it for her as she stared at him.

"Hey," he said as they drove away from the palace.

"Hm," Nayera was silent, too silent for her good.

"Our plan, it worked, they called off the wedding," he said with a smile as he stared at her.

"Congratulations," she replied in one word before she again went to stare outside the window.

"Are you not happy?" He asked slowing down the car.

"No, I am, now I don't have to pretend to like you sorry, love you, and your parents, Rani sa and Rana ji, they would not force you to get married," she replied in a neutral tone as he looked at her with a frown.

"Your tone says you are not happy," he pointed out.

"What am I supposed to do then kush? High five with you? Hell yeah, we won?" She asked no blurting her anger out

"Listen, I am... Just tired by all this, it is not every day I pretend to be someone's girlfriend and his family goes on all doing Roka today and then rejects me like I am a piece of shit," she said as Kush held her hand.

"We pretended this, the Kundali drama otherwise they loved you, hell Maa-sa was even staring at her bangles when you were busy selecting your dress, " he said as she bite her lip.

"They liked me for a moment but then what, they threw me out like I was trash," nayera stated, her real feelings were coming out as Kush frowned looking at her crying

He was quick to stop the car and pull her over to him.

"Listen here Era, you are the most desirable women I have laid my eyes on," he stared into her eyes.

"You may say that but family? Why am I always thrown out Kush? Why do they think of me as bad? Am I that bad?" She asked with the innocence of a child.

He could see deep-rooted trauma in her eyes.

"You're good, you're the best Era," he said before hugging her.

Nayera's body froze, she was getting hugged.

The warmth settling in her chest made her close her eyes as she let the bad memories fade away.

She could hide away for some time no?
